Render as decentralized GPU supply for AI inference
Quote280 words
Argues many AI tokens lack a real use case, but Render does: AI inference needs lots of GPUs, and Render incentivizes decentralized compute from dormant GPUs. Includes an explainer on what inference is versus training.
Key claims
AI will need lots of GPUs
Render enables access to dormant GPUs for inference, improving efficiency
many "AI" tokens try to ride the #AI narrative without actually having a sound use case 🤖
but some tokens actually do 👀
a brief 🧵 showcasing one of my favourites 👇 (0/9)

1/ AI needs computation at scale. That requires a lot of GPUs
and crypto can play a role as a decentralizing force to decentrally source computational resources for #AI inference (maybe also training)
2/ in the context of artificial intelligence (AI), inference is the process where a trained model makes predictions based on the input data it receives
3/ this process can take several forms depending on the task at hand:
in a machine learning context, it could be predicting the value of a house based on features like size and location
4/ in a natural language processing context, it could involve generating the next word in a sentence; and in a computer vision context, it could involve identifying objects in an image
5/ so in summary, inference is the stage that follows the training phase in an #AI model's lifecycle. During training, the model learns patterns and relationships from a dataset. During inference, it applies what it's learned to make predictions or decisions about new data
6/ inference requires computational resources. These can also be sourced in a decentralized way
7/ @RenderToken for example can provides a network that incentivizes participants to provide decentralized computation that could be used for #AI inference
8/ why is that important?
well, looks like #AI will need LOTS of GPUs 👀
@RenderToken enables access to dormant GPUs, which can increase efficiency 🤯

9/ what other tokens aside $RNDR are you bullish on in an #AI context anon? 🤖
QUOTING @LoganJastremski
If only there were a way to access dormant GPUs I'm sure that would be valuable 🤔
